Nice job on the video. Thanks for doing it as it was very helpful. I ended up using an allen wrench to fit in the slot and pliers to turn it to push the seal out. Worked a charm.

That’s great. Glad the video was helpful. Have a great season.

OMG you just saved my day!!!! That secret backing plate stalled what should’ve been a simple task. I was seriously going nuts not understanding why my seal didn’t look or fit like anyone else’s. Thank you!

[@aquaholic3]

Glad it was useful!

Glad I found this. I am about to tackle the same project and was fretting taking the pump off. Going to try this first. However, can you do one while standing on your head? :)

[@larrylonesome7224]

Thanks for very thorough explanation.I have water in sump oil and reluctant to take head off engine as it was only done ten yrs ago and engine is fifty yr old Lister so hoping new Jabsco seal does the job.

Super helpful. It’s on a different side, but the 1973 Perkins engine I’m working on has the same impeller assembly. Thanks!

I subscribed on your Chanel !

[@farmerdansurferjoe]

great video, gives me encouragement to give it a try. my pump is on a different engine but same parts & failure ( water weeping out the weep hole) . all new pedestal pump = 600 $ , repair kit much much less . did the kit come with any assembly grease, to help the seal slide right on or lube the impeller ? thanks

[@aquaholic3]

Yes. Normally impeller replacement kits come with a proper grease packet to coat the impeller with.

Hi, do you have the service kit part number please? I need to order one for my M35. Thx

[@aquaholic3]

Hi Jon, you can easily find at www.parts4engines.com. But, also, if you pause the video when I am showing the kit, you can see the kit cover. Where the website is indicated.

Here a link that will take directly to that rebuild kit. www.parts4engines.com/perkins-perama-m20-raw-water-pump-impellers-service-kits/

Thanks for posting. I came just as far as you and then found that backplate that didnt seem to be removable.
